Hi all,
just got news from the orthodontist that I need to get braces, and I have to do so pretty soon to have any sort of insurance coverage. I've also been planning on trying to get on 1-11 so I looked up how this would effect that, and came up with this...

6. The following conditions will result in deferral of enrolment until the condition is corrected:
3. the active phase of orthodontic treatment, if such treatment is required to treat an underlying functional disability/medical condition. If orthodontic treatment is not required to treat an underlying functional disability/medical condition, enrolment may proceed if the applicant signs the Statement of Understanding on orthodontic treatment which is found in the Recruiter's Handbook, Annex D to Chapter 2.
7. The dental standards for enrolment in the Canadian Forces shall apply:
1. to applicants for the Regular Force;
2. to applicants for the Reserve Entry Training Program at Service Colleges;
3. to members of the Reserves making application for transfer to the Regular Force; and
4. for employment
1. on Class C service;
2. on Class B service for a period in excess of 6 months; or
3. as active aircrew (including Reserve Class A Active Aircrew).
Am I pretty much S.O.L.? I'm not sure what sort of "routine" my braces will put me on regarding checkups, etc. However, if I have them on by the time the roto leaves Canada, are there any positions that I could still be accepted for?
